Barrett Carter says Wes Goodwin's brains "set him apart"

CLEMSON – You can count linebacker Barrett Carter as a big fan of new defensive coordinator Wes Goodwin.

Goodwin took over for Brent Venables after Venables left for Oklahoma in December, and the early returns have been positive. Carter, a rising sophomore out of Suwanee, Georgia, enters 2022 having recorded 26 tackles (one for loss), a pass breakup, and a fumble recovery he returned three yards for a touchdown in 179 snaps over 12 games (one start) as a true freshman in 2021.

Carter told the media following Friday’s practice that he has been working out at two different linebacker spots as well as the dime back.
